There are players that can wear individual blame (Redden and Corvo), but consistent defensive play by the team as a whole is the coach's responsibility and Paddock wears this quite plainly.Garethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15145720099191468876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9215652504344172254.post-20580039383342634582008-02-01T16:24:00.000-05:002008-02-01T16:24:00.000-05:00Hear hear.

I have zero confidence in him, and the players likely have none either. He's run the top line into the ground with injuries, gives none of the other lines regular shifts, confuses the heck out of our goalies (I think alternating goalies with every game was his style with the Jets as well, but my memory could be fuzzy), and is now publicly shaming the top line. <BR/><BR/>The media is really not touching this issue. Ottawa's a small town, but not that small.RZnoreply@blogger.com
